Alameda County

The Bethany Reservoir Area, located in the northeastern corner of Alameda County, is a priority area for protection and potential acquisition for regional parkland and trails as identified in the 1997 East Bay Regional Park District Master Plan. These lands are considered vital for soil and water quality, plant and animal diversity, habitat for sensitive species, wildlife corridors, the regional trail system, and outdoor recreation. The Bethany Reservoir Area is important for protecting the water quality in the Bethany Reservoir which is a link in the California Aqueduct and feeds the South Bay Aqueduct. The Bethany Reservoir is also an important recreational resource.
